If you want a stylish and value-packed crossover for your daily drive, the 2021 Nissan Kicks might be the perfect fit. It has everything you can expect from Nissan, with the bonus of being great on gas mileage. Get to know the Nissan Kicks!

The Basics

The Nissan Kicks subcompact crossover has become even more versatile in 2021. While most people don’t think of the Nissan Kicks as a family hauler, the Kicks comfortably seats five people with plenty of cargo room. With a 2021 design upgrade, the Kicks has a sporty style that looks like a more upscale crossover.

The 2021 Kicks has three trim levels. The base model is the Kicks S with two upper trim levels, SV and SR. Higher trim levels include Intelligent Cruise Control, Remote Engine Start, and the Around View Monitor.

Exterior

The Nissan Kicks is undeniably an eye-catcher. Its redesigned bold front end gives it a new look, and its compact size makes it excellent for maneuvering through traffic.

Roomy Interior

The 2021 Kicks is designed to be roomy with plenty of seating and legroom. It has a huge trunk with 25.3 cubic feet of cargo space, and the rear seats fold down, giving you a maximum length of 57″.

Safety Features

The Nissan Safety Shield 360 offers numerous features like Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Blind Spot Warning, and Lane Departure. The Kicks also has Intelligent Emergency Braking and Rear Automatic Braking.

When you’re in tight parking spaces, use the available Around View Monitor camera system to see all four corners of the vehicle on the infotainment screen. The Kicks also comes with a rearview monitor.

State of the Art Tech

The Nissan Kicks has excellent tech features, including Wifi connectivity and USB ports in the front and back. You can pair the Kicks with the NissanConnect Services app to start the car remotely, turn on the heat, or flash your lights.

The unique, customizable driver display keeps important information at eye level. You can customize the Advanced Drive-Assist Display with information like caller ID, messages, or driver alerts. Hands-free Text Messaging Assistant allows you to keep your hands on the wheel while responding to messages with your voice.

Performance

The Kicks is an agile and responsive vehicle with a 1.6L engine and 122 horsepower. Because of its lighter weight, the Kicks is excellent on gas mileage with an EPA-estimated  31 city and 36 mpg highway.

Features like Hill Start Assist help you maintain your grip on the road when you’re starting on a steep incline. The Intelligent Engine Brake slows down the car smoothly when you’re coming to a stop, preventing your car from lurching forward unexpectedly.

Infotainment system

The Nissan Kicks is equipped with a 7-inch touchscreen and an 8-inch screen at higher trim levels. The touchscreen is user-friendly with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto integrations, bringing Siri and your favorite apps to your vehicle touchscreen. The Kicks also has wireless charging to keep you powered up and connected.
